I’m happy to help with a diff swaps and coilover swaps.
My car needs a wash but I have a feeling my car washer won’t be there...

MS3 Pro, Yeah, I have some tunes for those, but then spent about 3 years fine tuning, I can send MSQ files to anybody that wants them.

Sounds like a lot to do at a dodgy day. Any flat tops booked to get the cars back home again?

This is also a great place to "store" your MSM 17" Racing Hart rims!

I thought you advocated putting them on a NA not in a dam...

I have rolled many guards on differing cars. I have a guard roller and have done two MX5's. If I can attend I will happily do this for people. Only one proviso - your paint needs to be in good condition, sometimes even if you do get the right amount of heat in and you go easy paint will crack. All care taken - no responsibility......(I suppose it is a dodgy day..have done it before with a phone book and car jack)

Does that mean you're going to make one of these out of any cars left behind?

A word of warning about the dodgy day location for those who have not been there.

If coming via Yamanto/Ipswich be aware that when turning into the driveway people do not see you. I have almost been knocked off the motorbike many times because of this :( The fun ones are when you slow down (with indicator on) to turn right into the driveway and people overtake you on the right hand side.

Take care!

If someone has a reasonable soft top that they want to sell let me know as a person has just purchased a 1990 NA6 and the current soft top is stuffed.
